With
GeoReality you can explore the world around you, find its points
of interest, and reach these places in an innovative and easy way.
The
app uses Augmented and Virtual Reality to let you “See” places you add
to your Map through your mobile Camera
by showing markers representing these places with their real-time distances and
directions according to your real or virtual location.
With
GeoReality you can search for places and get detailed
information about them like address, phone number, website, and photos that
will be downloaded from Google.
By
using the Navigation feature you can reach any
place just by following a set of waypoints markers shown on the camera screen
in front of you. It’s just like video games but this
time in reality.
And
don’t forget to enable actions for any place to
put your phone on silent mode or to show a notification when you reach that
place.
Publish your business location and information
on Google Maps so everyone can find it.
Change
you location to any place in the world to start a Virtual Tour using an augmented version of
Street View.
Through this Help you will learn
how to use the app and get advantage of all its special and unique features.
When you open the app, you will
be directed to one of its two main pages: Camera
Interface , Map.
Depending on the
way you hold your mobile, the appropriate page will be shown:
*These gestures will
only work if your mobile has a compass sensor, otherwise you will be
immediately directed to the Map page and you will not
be able to use the Camera interface.
o Does the app needs an internet
connection to work?
The app may
occasionally need to connect to the internet to show the map or to perform
place searching operations or to get information about these places. But all
the downloaded data (Map , places..) will be temporary
stored on your device which means you can continue to use the app even when
there is no internet connection.
o Does the app works on all smart
phones?
The app works on
Android devices starting from version 2.3 or higher. But it’s preferable to have an orientation sensor (compass) in your mobile
to be able to use the Camera Interface (otherwise
you can only use the Map page in the app). Also you
will have to enable location on your mobile.
o When I open the Map page the app
asks me to update Google Play Services
GeoReality needs an updated version of Google Play Services to show Map. Go to
Google Play store and update.
o No places markers shown on Camera
Interface
First, be sure
you add places to your map. You can do this directly from the camera screen by
searching for Nearby places
.
If no places shown on the screen after the search completed, or the markers
doesn’t move correctly when you turn to the left or right, this could mean that
the orientation sensor (compass) may need Calibration.
Press the menu button on your device and click “Calibrate”.
Also
try to adjust the places view range to the appropriate limit to show the places
markers.
o The Camera Interface doesn’t open
when I lift the mobile upward
You can use gestures to switch between camera screen and map, but
clicking the button in the
camera/map dual view mode
will directly open Map page overriding gestures. (Use it to show map
when your mobile is in vertical position).
